Editor’s Note: Dr. Bob Hughes is former Chairman and a current member of the University of Louisville Board of Trustees. His post, discussing some the issues affecting the board, is exclusive to Card Game.
I deeply regret the embarrassment that the actions of a handful of trustees and their followers have brought upon alumni of the University of Louisville and to the community at large. This was a very disappointing week for UofL and for the people that cherish the university.
Among the highest responsibilities of individuals who serve on boards of directors is advancing the best interests of the organization quietly and collegially while doing nothing that would embarrass the business or institution.
